Shoulder rehab, accessory and core work then a three mile ruck with 60 lb
Shoulder feeling good. External rotation is great. Still some pain in forward flexion but now I just stop in an iso-hold where it hurts until it stops hurting. We'll show these tendons who's in charge
Picked up a #GoRuck Rucker 5.0. Built like a brick shithouse, like all their gear. Lumbar pad changes the geometry of how the weight lands on my shoulders but I think I'll get used to it. Overall happy so far

The fun challenge of #SuitcaseCarry a sandbag for 12 km in #Wien / #Vienna while doing brief site seeing and #OpenStreetMap.
Towards the center/east of Wien there is the opportunity to do some #MicroMapping. Also there are lots of potential in adding waste baskets and dog stations.
My grip was almost gone the last couple of km, but it could also be due to doing pull-ups on `playground=horizontal_bar`, 3 x 10 #PullUps.

For a company that's trying to look tough, Wolfpak has a hilarious list of licensed products. Barbie? Scooby Doo? Powerpuff Girls? https://wolfpak.com/pages/collab
If I still hung out in #GORUCK spaces, I'm sure we'd be making fun of these collabs. Suburban macho backpackers are petty like that.

My beloved #GoRuck -original- GR-0 I used for EDC and travel finally ran into zipper trouble so I contacted their SCARS folks https://www.goruck.com/pages/scars-lifetime-guarantee
Unfortunately it didn't make sense to fix the old one so they sent me a -new- 21L GR-1 (basically the updated version of the GR-0)
I've had a couple of quibbles with their customer service over the years over event refunds and such, but when they say "lifetime guarantee" for their gear they mean LIFETIME

@APBBlue How does the saying go? It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war
If you get one, please also learn how to use it. I've done a bunch of the #GoRuck shooting classes https://www.goruck.com/pages/tactical-events. They're pretty beginner-friendly and will definitely make you safer and better able to handle firearms. They'll even rent you guns if you don't have one (or at least they used to - haven't done a class in a while)

#2025in2025 (38 / 1427.12 / 1509 / 2025 )
Participated in an old school #GORUCK Tough which starts at 21:00 and lasts about 12 hours. No phones or watched permitted throughout the event.
Due to the knee injury pushed recovery to last possible day before testing if healed enough for the event. Thus did about 50 km within 3 days.

@noplasticshower I'm an unabashed fanboy for the #GoRuck gear. Everything they make is built like a brick shithouse and comes with a lifetime guarantee
If this is just going to be a piece of workout gear, I'd get the Rucker https://www.goruck.com/products/rucker
If you want to also use it for everyday carry, I'd look at the GR-0 or GR-1:

#DailyBloggingChallenge (321/365)
When comparing the scraping method between Goruck’s and Sandlot’s page they differ quite significant.
On #Goruck one can use a simple #HTML parser and extract the data from a reusable #CSS class name.
On #Sandlot one has access to the response data as #JSON and needs to create a pattern/dictionary matcher.

DailyBloggingChallenge (305/365)
Considering the movement with #GORUCK’s #SimpleSandbag one only gets two vertical handles compared to #sandbag and its filler which has a whole arrangement of vertical, horizontal, and side handles. This can make the carrying of such bags more tedious depending on its fullness amount.
To ease the task of carrying one can acquire and use #RuckStraps. This has the benefit of freeing up one hand and giving a larger area to hold onto. Plus it can also mark the sandbags when participating in a competition.
